What is RimEffect?
RimEffect is a little pet project of mine which aims to add some of the amazing races, weapons, armor (or simply content) from the Mass Effect Universe into Rimworld in an immersive and vanilla friendly (meaning it plays nicely along the vanilla content) way so we all can enjoy RimWorld even more! The content of this mod is going to be modular, so you guys can choose which stuff you want inside your game and what you do not want. Why? Because I am just nice that way!
All future mods of mine that are Mass Effect related will be found in this topic from now on!

Description
A long time ago, when humanity began to spread across the stars, genetic engineering was used to create a species which was before only seen in games. The Asari!
It is lost to history what exactly happened and how the Asari Union came to be, but now, thousands of years later, the Asari are just as wide spread in the galaxy as humanity.

Features:

• New, fully playable race: The Asari from the ME Universe! They work just like normal humans!
• They come in 4 different colours: Blue, Violet, Light Blue and Green!
• Each skin color has 7 different head versions!
• They bleed pruple, not red!
• Custom life stages! Just like the real once!
• They live up to a 1000 years!
• Custom names! Yes! They all have names like the asari in ME!
• They work like a vanilla faction! They send visitors and traders and attack you, if you fuck with them!

Important:
This mod does NOT aim to convert RimWorld into Mass Effect! That said, the lore of the ME Universe does only matter to me to a certain degree!
To use this mod with an existing save, use Faction Discovery by Orion!

Humanoid Alien Framework

Oooh, can't wait for this! Do you have an ETA when it will be released?

[Helixien]

Oooh, can't wait for this! Do you have an ETA when it will be released?

Yep, right now. The Asari should be all working fine. I played with them for 6h now and havent found any bugs so far!

Weapons will come tomorrow!

[abbelsap]

Hmm, too bad it requires a new save tho.. Oh well, off to a new start it is!

edit: Perhaps I'm stupid, but can you only get the Asari from their faction? I can't seem to find out how to start with an Asari...

Also, is this compatible with 'Prepare Carefully'?

Yes, you can only get them from their factions right now. A Patch for stuff like Prepare Carefully is currently open inside Notepad++^^ We have to wait for the Humanoid Alien Races PC patch for that. Nothing I can do!
But yes, you can use Prepare Carefully along side, you just cant add them to your colony with it for now.

[Dryerlint]

I love alien races! This will make a fine addition to my collection.

[faltonico]

So are they bangable or what?

100% bangable!

To complete the usual and guaranteed to come at some point* questions:
Will there be a CR and/or EPOE patch?
*so why not now? ;)
